Hey gang,

We've (Stormrider and I) been busy brainstorming and destroying units for the last few weeks. I've managed to survive another Outreach-ian mini-campaign and have coalesced a unit of misfits, scoundrels, partying cat-girls and hulking brutes together into the Outreach Irregulars. We like to kill WoBbies for breakfast, lunch and dinner. :D :)) :thumbsup:

I'll post more soon if Stormy doesn't beat me to it.

"Ciao !!"

P.S. Stormy did the unit selections based off of some salvage that was acquired thru "legal means of acquisition". ^-^ ;)

Partying cat-girls, now that is my type of merc unit. :D :thumbsup:

Yeah Snakespinner I somehow managed to pull a bunch of furry marsupials outta my backside, lol.

We did another mini-camp involving Outreach. I purposely started with only a lance of 3050's hardware on Solaris during the riots and escaped with just a weaponless-5S Banshee. Landed on Outreach with a fmr kuritan Sunder jock and her "Baby". We hired out and got into Keid with a few other mercs to raid the Kallon warehouses and only lost one lance. We did manage to complete the job with a minimum of collateral damage. It was nice see-ing all 4 warehouses burning brightly in the midst of a raging thundersnow blizzard. That was cool. What wasn't cool was the overwhelming amount of security forces deployed around and in the warehouse's. That sucked. We lost the one lance to basically having a warehouse go up next to it. (Bad positioning on my part).

I'm working on doing some loose rp-ing and rolls to scrounge up more bodies and equipment to move to the next event.

I had a game like that once. i was told warehouse had nothing important in it, so i used it for cover.
Nothing meant SRM ammo, there went my company.
Good luck. :thumbsup:

I think they just upgraded to pulse lasers and targetting computers. No way they´re going to miss you. Now just hold still for a second...

After being shot out of the Banshee during the beginning of "Condition Feral" I managed to utilize a -2 Devastator that had belonged to a Lt. Col. (Ty "Timex" Allen) from the 51st Dark Panzer Jaegers. After scrapping out the cockpit and refitting said cockpit I discovered that this particular 'Mech had some shiny new toys installed courtesy of their employers - the WoBblies. (More on that later though)

The Irregulars managed to evacuate from Outreach before the second battle of Outreach kicked off. See below for more info.

We got as far as Galatea to rest, repair and recruit some "fine, upstanding citizenry" to be able to field a mixed company of equipment and proceeded to hire on with Interstellar Expeditions as a troubleshooting / rapid reaction / security force for their important sites while being able to negotiate some side contracts as needed.

Now I know that some will criticize the fact that I've acquired some shiny toys but I've busted my ass to win these fights as it happens. If Stormrider didn't know the risk's of me winning some of the battles then he'd probably made them easier. But he still has some of Tt's nasty surprises on deck for me to face.

A little revised unit info:

The 1st Outreach Irregulars were formed on Outreach in the summer of 3067. After running a couple of minor raids (the first being the Kallon Keid retaliation raid) they were caught up in the in the messy fight for Outreach when Waco's Rangers and co. launched their assault for the planet. The Irregulars assisted the Dragoons with the "Condition Feral" protocol and managed to rescue a Blackwell Ind. V.P. on the side, safely escorting his hover-limo to relative safety. After dust-off on an outbound dropship, D. Callaghan ran into an I.E. recruiter and took her up on her previous contract offer.

"The Irregulars next stop was the planet Styk in the Capellan Confederation. The raid on the Tao 'Mechworks went off with a couple of issues. First was the Tao 'Mechworks Security Forces springing a badly executed ambush on us, We were able to survive it by over-running their positions and they scattered easily. The next was the CCAF's Syn's Hussars. They actually did some damage to the Irregulars in an effective roadblock that slowed up the unit as we were making our way back to the ship. We took a lot of damage - namely my Devastator was cored - but no one died. I'll have to scrounge a ride from somewhere if I want to play with rest of the kids." Excerpt from personal log: D. J. Callaghan, Capt., C.O., Dec. '67

Deathknight69 · « **Reply #27 on:** 07 March 2021, 08:43:18 »

The Irregulars were sent to Acamar in the Fed Suns to babysit a Contard Mining property in the sticks for a bit of short term garrison work. It was hardly cushy though because some pirates going by the name of the Lafayette Legion came to raid the planet, specifically the Contard Mining property. It was because of a covert davion MIIO operation in co-operation with Interstellar Expeditions had recently un-earthed some interesting Star League era computer intelligence cores and equipment. The Irregulars would later discover through interrogating the 5 surviving L.L. 'mechjocks that the Word was behind the L.L. raid/recon mission. The Word wanted any and all of the find but came up empty-handed. So the WoB militia troops decided to wipe out a few villages as a "abject lesson to all of those who assist the heretics". This happened as the Irregulars were boosting to a waiting jumpship.

"We got away from Acamar feeling pretty good about ourselves until we rendevous'd with an outbound jumpship and watched in stunning detail the WoBM 's shitty vengence on some unfortunate villages in Acamar's hinterlands because we foiled their raid. By the higher powers if we ever encounter any WoBM forces I don't know if I'll be able to control the unit let alone myself. It's gonna come to a reckon-ning between us and the robes one day. They won't be able to escape even if we have to use some of their own tactics and toys against them." Excerpt from personal log: D. J. Callaghan, Capt., C.O., Jan. '68
